The transfer battle of Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot is already a well-contested one with Chelsea and Arsenal due to battle alongside Manchester United, Barcelona and Liverpool for the Frenchman's signature. Now, after his fine performances at the World Cup, the 27-year-old could be on the move in January.
Next month, the former Paris-Saint Germain man enters the final six months of his contract in Italy meaning foreign clubs are able to open talks over a pre-contract agreement for the player. Rabiot is expected to not commit his future to the Old Lady and has a queue of potential suitors to choose from.
His performances in Qatar for the France national team have earned him plenty of praise with numerous fine performances in the middle of the park. Chelsea have identified Rabiot as a possible replacement for N'Golo Kante and Jorginho while Arsenal are understood to be keen on adding a new midfielder to Mikel Arteta's squad.
